Lyrics

We were on a runaway train
And I couldn't find the brake
You kept your foot on the gas
I cried we're going much too fast
But sometimes it felt alright
Like we're free and we were flying
So I closed my eyes and said
I'll stay with you 'til the end
I knew it was suicide
But I was addicted to the ride
'Cause those were the highest highs
I've ever felt in my life
A girl who has nothing to lose will always choose to save you
You're lucky that you found a girl whose family is so cruel
'Cause if I had to choose between the fire and the frying pan
I'd rather choose the one where I get burned by a loving man
When I got on that train, I was already in so much pain
And I didn't care where it went as long as it was far away
Even when the bumps began, I knew I had to stay
Had nowhere else to go, I've exhausted my escapes
We were on a runaway train
And I couldn't find the brake
You kept your foot on the gas
I cried we're going much too fast
But sometimes it felt alright
Like we're free and we were flying
So I closed my eyes and said
I'll stay with you 'til the end
I knew it was suicide
But I was addicted to the ride
'Cause those were the highest highs
I've ever felt in my life
The outside world became a blur and pretty soon it disappeared
'Cause we'd shot right off the tracks and high above the stratosphere
Space got bent and time slowed down and soon there was no gravity
The world collapsed into itself until it was just you and me
When we came crashing down, I didn't want to leave you behind
I knew this wasn't your fault, you're a victim of your mind
But when I tried to pry you loose, I saw the shackles around your feet
It's not that you couldn't come, it's that you simply couldn't leave
We were on a runaway train
And I couldn't find the brake
You kept your foot on the gas
I cried we're going much too fast
But sometimes it felt alright
Like we're free and we were flying
So I closed my eyes and said
I'll stay with you 'til the end
I knew it was suicide
But I was addicted to the ride
'Cause those were the highest highs
I've ever felt in my life
Now that I'm back on earth, I can breathe and walk around
But the only thing that hurts is knowing you can't come down
I wish you could see the trees, feel the grass beneath your feet
I wish I could hear your laugh and feel you breathing next to me
I see you sometimes at night, a shooting star across the sky
And I can almost see your tears, the helplessness in your eyes
I wish I could've been strong enough to cut your chains
But I could only choose one person to save
We were on a runaway train
And I couldn't find the brake
You kept your foot on the gas
I cried we're going much too fast
But sometimes it felt alright
Like we're free and we were flying
So I closed my eyes and said
I'll stay with you 'til the end
I knew it was suicide
I was addicted to the ride
'Cause those were the highest highs
I've ever felt in my life
